Theory of Operation / Application Information

12V eFuse

The 12V eFuse block functions as follows: The 12V eFuse is initially on its off state. The ON/OFF control of the eFuse is base on the input pins V12IN, P3, P3FW, P3En bit and fault conditions. See application details section for the complete control functions. After the eFuse is allowed to turn on, it then ramps the output voltage to its final value while at the same time limit the max current to the current limit value. If the input continues to rise above the OV12 threshold, the eFuse will limit the output to the OV12limit and set the OV12 bit in the serial port. The 12V eFuse will operate in this state until it hits its OT limit and shuts down. The eFuse will restart after temperature is below the OT hystereis value.The 12V eFuse block also has an output current monitor. The current monitor output current is proportional to the current of the 12V eFuse from input to output. The 12v E-Fuse will limit current to the current limit level. If the output voltage drops low enough, a short is detected and the current limit is reduced even further. If the short circuit is removed before an over temperature event occurs, the current limit level will remain at the short circuit current limit level until all the faults in the I2C registers are cleared by writing to the status register. This will ensure that the output voltage rise rate is limited to the short circuit current level.

5V eFuse

The 5V eFuse block functions as follows: The 5V eFuse is initially on its off state. The ON/OFF control of the eFuse is base on the input pins V5IN, P3, P3FW, P3En bit and fault conditions. See application details section for the complete control functions. After the eFuse is allowed to turn on, it then ramps the output voltage to its final value while at the same time limit the max current to the current limit value. If the input continues to rise above the OV5 threshold, the chip will limit the output to the OV5limit and set the OV5 bit in the serial port. The 5V eFuse will operate in this state until it hits its OT limit and shuts down. The eFuse will restart after temperature is below the OT hystereis value. When the current goes in the reverse direction above the threshold, the eFuse will open and isolate the output from the input. The eFuse will restart with current limit once the reverse current goes to zero AND the input has satisfied the normal startup criteria. The 5V eFuse block has an output current monitor. The current monitor output current is proportional to the current of the 5V eFuse from input to output. The 5V Efuse block has a logic output at EF5on open drain pin to indicate when the eFuse is in its open protective state. The 5v E-Fuse will limit current to the current limit level. If the output voltage drops low enough, a short is detected and the current limit is reduced even further. If the short circuit is removed before an over temperature event occurs, the current limit level will remain at the short circuit current limit level until the 3.3v Power Good is OK. This will ensure that the output voltage rise rate is limited to the short circuit current level.

eFuse Current Monitor Function

The average current being supplied by each eFuse output can be monitored at I5SNS and I12SNS. A current proportional to the average eFuse output current will be sourced out of the sense pins. This current will be converted to a voltage and filtered by a parallel R-C network connect at I5SNS and I12SNS pins.

By default, the current monitors are disabled. They are enabled via the serial port. Any fault that turns off either the eFuses or the regulators will turn off the current monitor by reseting IMON bits as well. The current monitors have two different gain selections to allow for better resolution at different current ranges.

3.3V Switching Regulator

The VR33 regulator is a fully integrated switching regulator. This regulator features adjustable output voltage with power monitor and over current protection. Whenever the output is 10% below the programmed target output voltage, the PG is triggered and the VR33FLT bit is set along with the PG33 pin pulled low to indicate a failure.This regulator starts when 5VoutB is crosses the start regulator threshold. It will stop when 5VoutB is below its min supply for proper operation. The start/stop thresholds are different. This table shows how the VR33 output is controlled by the 3V3SEL bits. The default setting of 10011 gives an output of 3.3V.

I2C Serial Interface

The chip supports a high speed (3.4MHz) serial interface with the I²C serial protocol. This interface is bi-directional allowing the microprocessor to set functions and read status. Status0/1 register bits are latched once the first fault happens. In this case, the following fault cannot write the register anymore. Cleared by write action to the status register.

I2C Port Functional Description

Simple two wire, bidirectional, serial communication port. Multiple devices on same bus speeds from 400Kbps (FS-Mode) to 3.4Mbps (HS-Mode). SOC Master controls bus. Device listens for the unique address that precedes data. General I2C Port Description

The LX8237 includes an I2C compatible serial interface, using two dedicated pins: SCL and SDA for I2C clock and data respectively. Each line is externally pulled up to a logic voltage when they are not being controlled by a device on the bus. The LX8237 interface acts as a I2C slave that is clocked by the incoming SCL clock. The LX8237 I2C port will support both the Fast mode (400kHz max) and typically the High Speed mode(3.4MHz max). The data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock signal (SCL). The state of the SDA line can only be changed when SCL is LOW (except for start, stop, and restart).

START and STOP Commands

When the bus is idle, both SCL and SDA must be high except in the power up case where they may be held high or low during the system power up sequence.

The SOC (bus master) signals START and STOP bits signify the beginning and the end of the I2C transfer. The START condition is defined as the SDA signal transitioning from HIGH to LOW while the SCL line is HIGH. The STOP condition is defined as the SDA transitioning from LOW to HIGH while the SCL is HIGH. The SOC acts as the I2C master and always generates the START and STOP bits. The I2C bus is considered to be busy after START condition and free after STOP condition. During data transfer, SOC master can generate repeated START conditions. The START and the repeated START conditions are functionally equivalent.

Data Transfers

Data is transferred in 8 bit bytes by SDA with the MSB transferred first. Each byte of data has to be followed by an acknowledge (ACK) bit. The acknowledged related clock pulse is generated by the master. The acknowledge occurs when the transmitter master releases the SDA line to a high state during the acknowledge clock. The SDA line must be pulled down by the receiver slave during the 9th clock pulse to signify acknowledgment. A receiver slave which has been addressed must generate an acknowledgement (“ACK”) after each byte has been received. After the START condition, the SOC (I2C) master sends a chip address. The standard I2C address is seven bits long. Making the eighth bit a data direction bit (R/W). For the eighth bit (LSB), a “0” indicates a WRITE and a “1” indicates a READ. (For clarification, communications are broken up into 9-bit segments, one byte followed by one bit for acknowledging.) The second byte selects the register to which the data will be written. The third byte contains data to write to the selected register.

When a receiver slave doesn’t acknowledge the slave address, the data line must be left HIGH by the slave. The master can then generate a STOP command to abort the transfer. If a slave receiver does acknowledge the slave address but, sometime later in the transfer cannot receive any more data bytes, the master must again abort the transfer. This is indicated by the slave generating the not acknowledge on the first byte to follow.

The slave leaves the data line HIGH and the master generates the STOP command. The data line is also left high by the slave and master after a slave has transmitted a byte of data to the master in a read operation, but this is a not acknowledge that indicates that the data transfer is successful.

STOP only serves to reset the address pointer. It doesn’t reset the I2C circuit since

once STOP is issued, I2C gives up the request for SDA line, and does nothing. It

may remain in IDLE state for a long period of time.

It’s the role of the START signal that resets I2C circuit for a fresh start and kick start

the circuit for all the transactions.

It is also the START signal that will clean up and re-sync the communication in case

channel is disrupted by noise and/or brownout, etc. The only requirement is a two

clock pulses of SCL while maintain SDA high which leading the START. This

guarantees the removal of start_reset signal, and a new START will take effect.

The key components of the double clock pulses are those two rising edges that

clears a way for brand new START signal to be accepted by the I2C circuit, as can

be seen from the I2C START circuit diagram.

Thermal Protection

If the 12V efuse hits 175degC, that efuse will be latched off. It will remain latched off until (V12IN is cycled high to low and back) OR (P3 is cycled low to high and back) OR (V5IN is cycled high to low and back) OR (AVDD somehow cycles high to low and back).

If the 5V efuse hits 175°C, that efuse as well as the 0.9V switching regulator and the 3.3V switching regulator will be latched off. They will remain latched off until (V5IN is cycled high to low and back) OR (P3 is cycled low to high and back) OR (AVDD somehow cycles high to low and back).

P3 PowerDisable Control

The PowerDisable feature is HW configurable to be allow FW control or not depending on the state of the P3FW pin. of state for the P3 pin. Whenever a fault status bit is set, the SINTn output is logic0 until all the faults are cleared by FW by writing to the status register. When P3FW bit is at logic1 state, FW can enable P3 to control the eFuses.

I²C SCL and SDA pin requirements Ideal Specification:

The power supply for the external pull up resistors attached to the SCL and SDA pins is assumed to be at 1.8 us, but the sequencing relative to the internal digital block power supply can occur at any time before or during startup or power down or any time in between. If the power supply drops below 1.8v logic level thresholds tolerance value (-10%), then I²C communication can be interrupted. The default register value loading of all I²C registers (customer and test) should be independent on the SCL/SDA state since this is not known.
